This year's door prize is a Dove Hunting Rig, done by several of PFDA's top carvers. The winner will take all the birds home. This is quite a rig that anyone would be proud to display.

| Tables will be available for rental by those wishing to sell waterfowl
related items. All sale items are subject to approval by show officials, and vendors must
be prepared to issue a receipt for all items sold. Vendors must furnish their own
backboards for hanging items. Items may not be attached to the hotel walls. Rental fee is
$100.00 along the walls and $75.00 in the center of the room. Fee and a donation item
with a value of $25 or more is mandatory. All donated items become the property of the
PFDA and disposition will be at the discretion of the Association. Tables are limited so
reserve early, (by May 15th). All reservations will be reviewed to prevent duplication and
to insure a variety of vendors. Members of the PFDA and PSWA will have preference. Contact: Carlo Vecchaiarelli, 410 Main Street, Pleasanton, CA 94566 or phone him at 925-846-1676 |

| 8. | Legacy Project |
| The Legacy Project was sponsored by the Library of Congress. Pacific Flyway was invited to participate and record the history of our organization. We practice a unique American Art form The Legacy Book is on our webpage, so take a few minutes and check out the history of PFDA. It is an exciting history of our club from it's early beginnings to the present day. This book will be on permanent display in the Library of Congress in Washington D.C. | |
| 9. | 5th YEAR CATEGORIES FOR 2006 |
| PFDA has expanded the horizons of carving by adding a major category at the June 1999 competition. Fish were added to the competition. Many beautiful carving were entered, and the competition was keen. The fish category will follow the IWCA guidelines for fish. We will also have single bird, unlimited paint IWCA hunting decoys. This will be an IWCA event, but you do not need to be a member of IWCA to enter, however, if you are not a member, you will not be able to participate in the IWCA championships if your bird wins best of category. For further information on these carving events, please contact Jim Burcio. This promises to bring a whole new perspective to the Sacramento Show. | |
